Hi admin,
I tried to install Solaris 2.5.1 recommended patches.
I was in single user mode, but it didn4t work well.
The kernel patch is 103640-14, and I tried install 103640-38.
Some messages like these are logged at
/var/sadm/install_data/Solaris_2.5.1_Recommended_log :
===================

====================
But, the showrev command and uname show different things:
showrev -p | grep 103640-38
Patch: 103640-38 Obsoletes: 103591-09, 103658-02, 103920-05, 103600-18,

SUNWcar, SUNWa
rc
uname -v
Generic_103640-14
I use find command, and any file was changed at /usr, /kernel.
Could someone give any tips, suggestions about where showrev command
find the information about installed patches?
Thanks in advance.
Vera
